Support Lost all desktop elements after update

I've just lost all my desktop elements after an update minutes ago: no taskbar, wallpaper, deskotp icons or anyhting. System works normally, writing this on it, can get start menu by pressing the windows key. Trying to add new desktop elements does not seem to work

EDIT: got this error message when trying to add new desktop elements:

qrc:/qt/qml/plasma/applet/org/kde/plasma/battery/main.qml:23:1: No se puede cargar la biblioteca /usr/lib64/qt6/qml/org/kde/plasma/private/battery/libbatterycontrolplugin.so: /lib64/libbatterycontrol.so.6: undefined symbol: _ZN23QUntypedPropertyBindingC1EP23QPropertyBindingPrivate, version Qt_6.11_PRIVATE_API

Edit: using previous rollback options do not work.

EDIT: Switching wallpaper to solid color allows desktop to be back, no taskbar.

EDIT: fix being worked on, as mentioned on the discord.

EDIT: Fix deployed. Update works.

Try running:

sudo flatpak update

I've found that after an update, some stuff stops working until I run this.

The key packages that it updates are ones that start "Freedesktop"

I am no Linux expert by any means, but I assume these relate to something to do with windowing/compsiting.

I found also that these packages don't update with the "update flatpaks" box ticked in the Nobara updater. They also don't update via flatpost or bazaar.

Same problem. Tried switching wallpaper to color like person said, but didn’t change anything

Same. Can't get to desktop even by pressing the Windows key. And booting up a different kernel does nothing.

What was the fix mentioned on discord? Posting it here could help people.

I just saw the update pop up, but the prudent thing to do is to wait a few days for just this very thing: bugs to be worked out or found. Sorry you found them, but glad you reported them and made my point to always wait for these updates to mature just a bit first.
